I hope everyone is getting as excited about CAM as I am with CAM being only four days away. The recent warm weather has finally cleared the snow off the hiking trails in the State of Maryland, but the current forecast calls for some wintry mix on Friday, so stay safe this weekend as you head off for CAM.

For those that are unfamiliar, Cache Across Maryland, (CAM) is the highlight of the caching year for the Maryland Geocaching Society. 10 CAM caches have been placed across the entire state of Maryland. The coordinates to these caches will be revealed on the MGS Forums at 7:09AM on March 21st. Geocachers will have five weeks to find all 10 CAM caches. There will be a code in each of the caches that will reveal where the CAM picnic will be located on Saturday May 2nd.

You do not need to be a member to participate in CAM, all you need is a login to view the forums on this Web Page.

The CAM picnic listing can be found here: CAM 2015 and the 2015 forum topic on CAM which contains everything you need to know about CAM and will be the location of the announcement of the CAM locations is here: CAM Forum

Come and join us for a nice meet and greet to welcome in the 2015 MGS Officers. The event is being held at the Golden Corral at Arundel Mills. The event listing is here, and more information about this event including prices can be found here. Please join us for great geocaching fellowship and conversation, even if you do not plan on eating. This event will be a great start to a most exciting year for the MGS.

Ho!, Ho!, Ho!, Its that time of year again. Its time for geocachers and friends alike to sit and enjoy some delicious eats, as we share caching stories. Come join us at the Maryland Geocaching Society Holiday Swap. This year we will be meeting at the Community Association Town Hall in Arbutus, Maryland on Saturday December 6th at 1 PM. There will be a potluck lunch/dinner followed by a gift exchange with an MGS twist. There will be 5 caches placed in the surrounding area (driving required for some), so you may want to come a little early. Please come out and join us to end another great event year for the MGS and to share some holiday cheer with your fellow geocachers.

Come join the Maryland Geocaching Society as we get together and do our part for Mother Nature and help clean up Tuckahoe State Park in Queen Anne, MD. On November 1st the MGS will host the Maryland Geocaching Society CITO 2014.

We will be some trail maintenance and some road side pick-up and trail trash pick-up around the park. Afterwards we will have a potluck lunch. So please bring something to share with your fellow cachers as we get together for one of caching core values of giving back.
